Musician

Daniel Lanois

Born:

"I want to leave something behind that means something," Daniel Lanois told Rolling Stone' s James Henke, explaining his singular approach to life and record making. "Am I going to follow my own ideas and philosophies, or am I just going to fall in the rut of doing rubbish for the sake of making a living?" Lanois's decision to follow a more meaningful approach led him from recording groups in a homemade studio in the 1970s to forging a partnership with avant-garde producer Brian Eno in the early 1980s to producing some of the best-known—even legendary—acts in popular music, including U2, Peter Gabriel, Robbie Robertson, the Neville Brothers, and Bob Dylan.

Bobby Wiens: Focus

Read "Focus" reviewed by Kyle Simpler


Even though a recording is a finished product, it still captures the feeling and intensity of the session. When players have a good working rapport, everything translates through the music. Clearly, the musicians assembled by drummer Bobby Wiens for his second album, Focus, share a strong rapport, and that chemistry is evident throughout the recording.

Tallinn's nine-day Jazzkaar festival is one of Europe's finest, always strengthening its line-up via visiting Statesiders, native Estonians and a spread of acts from around the continent. One of its climaxes in 2026 will be the appearance of tenor saxophonist Donny McCaslin, striking out with his powerful and stable quartet lineup, and concentrating on 2025's Lullaby ...

Andrea Longato: Thinking Heart

Read "Thinking Heart" reviewed by Dan McClenaghan


First impressions of music--putting streaming aside--can come at you from the cover art. Guitarist Andrea Longato's debut release, Thinking Heart features a pair of rhinoceros standing side-by-side, mirror images inside a plain wash of olive green. Who would create cover art like that? And why? But the why does not matter. The image is ...

Ten Supreme Fender Rhodes Albums

Read "Ten Supreme Fender Rhodes Albums" reviewed by Chris May


In 1965, reeling from the impact of Motown and the Brit invasion led by the Beatles, and about to be hit by the triple whammy that was acid rock and the rebel culture that went with it, jazz was on the back foot. Its relevance as entertainment, art form and spiritual sustenance was under threat, at ...

Tom Nazziola: Reflections On Love

Read "Reflections On Love" reviewed by Neil Duggan


Many albums feature arrangements of standards, so what does it take to stand out from the crowd? Solutions to the problem include choosing the seldom-played lesser-known standards, changing the chords to reharmonize the songs while keeping the melody and changing the instrumentation throughout the album. Tom Nazziola uses all these tools on his album Reflections On ...

Tinariwen - Then and Now

Read "Tinariwen - Then and Now" reviewed by Geno Thackara


Tinariwen sounds just like the deserts they are named for, hard-baked and rough as sand-scoured stone. It's the natural product of decades of life for this amorphous collective of Touareg nomads--living in and out of exile, surviving (and sometimes fighting in) people's revolutions, and finding time in between to put their tribes' lives and experiences into ...
